I’m not sold on Andrew Jackson, who was kind of an ass- but other than him…

How dare you have a POV different from his?
How dare you use money and the law to oppose his money and his law?

This leads to chaos. Equality. People voting. Quiet in the streets.

What are you thinking??

We had our first flurries last week. The bird bath started freezing.
Snow tires and boots are at the ready- it is well known that these reduce the winter’s severity if left visible.
We are prepared for the siege.

I like the idea. As soon as judges display that behavior they will have my support.

I would argue All billionaires use the first four, and most get value from all 5

There are a few that don’t inherit great wealth- but their kids will.

Live by the crypto, die by the crypto.

One of the symptoms and contributing causes of the collapse of the Roman Empire was what is called “ debasing the currency”

We could save a lot of money by using up the old stuff selectively.

We use “Defense” for anything outside the country and “War” for domestic stuff

Creative art and entertainment is going to slack off anytime there is censorship, suppression, and social breakdown.

The usual designation of this plan is “sneak attack”.
It was used frequently by Hitler at the start of WW2 and made famous by the attack on Pearl Harbor.

See also terrorism, banana republics, and war crimes.

Someone pointed out that the single largest US product with the largest ad budget is debt.

Mortgages. Car loans. Credit cards. Lines of credit.

Debt. We are all poor sharecroppers waiting to be evicted.

It is time for our Democratic Party to draft and publish a new version of Gingrich’s “Contract with America” possibly named “Democratic Party’s Contract to Save Our Democracy” and get it out in front of our population stating a plan of action to save our democracy if we’re elected a majority ASAP!

We are no longer an “advanced economy”

We are a market for international corporations and will remain so until we run out of credit money.

It would be nice if someone would graph the level of investment vs returns of US corps country by country.

The one that is not like the others is Barney Miller which was ground-breakingly funny

Correct.
Now take the next step.
The media has been bought and paid for.
They are driven by profit not principles.
They are no longer a free press, bulwark of freedom.

They caved.

And yet I am less each passing year.

Take the torch and run with it, folks. I need a breather now and then.
